Directions
- Cook pasta: Cook pasta shells per box instructions. Drain and set aside to cool 9 minutes, until not quite al dente.
- Preheat oven: Move oven rack to middle position and preheat to 350℉.
- Cook chicken: Pat cutlets dry with paper towel and cut into 1-in. pieces. Season with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour to coat and shake to remove excess flour.
- In large skillet over high heat, add 2 tsp. oil and heat until just smoking. Add chicken pieces and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 2-2½ minutes. Transfer chicken to medium bowl, and cover with foil.
- Cook pancetta & mushrooms: Return now empty skillet to medium-low heat and add pancetta. Cook, stirring often, until pancetta is brown and crisp, about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and increase heat to medium-high, and cook until liquid from mushrooms evaporates, and mushroom edges begin to brown, about 6-7 minutes. Transfer pancetta and mushrooms to bowl with chicken and cover.
- Cook shallots: Increase heat to medium, and add remaining 1 tsp. oil and shallots to skillet and cook until nicely browned, about 5 minutes. Add tomato paste and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Make sauce: Deglaze skillet with Holland House® Marsala Cooking Wine, and simmer mixture until reduced by half, about 6-8 minutes. Whisk in chicken broth and cream. Add oregano, and season with salt and pepper. Simmer sauce, whisking often, until thickened, about 8-10 minutes (sauce should barely leave a trail when spoon runs through it).
- Make filling: While the sauce simmers, make filling. In bowl of pancetta and mushrooms add chicken, ricotta, and mozzarella. Mix until just combined.
- Assemble & bake shells: Lightly grease 9×13-inch pan. Fill shells with filling and place in pan. Ladle half of sauce over filled shells. Cover with foil and bake 20 minutes.
